I had a sonogram on Friday and the baby is now extremely low, even the sonogram tech was surprised. Do you think this means the baby will come early? The baby is 7 lb 10 oz already. I will be 37 weeks Monday. Also I started losing my mucus plug the day before Thanksgiving but haven't had any more come out the last few days. And I have had Braxton Hicks for over a month now but nothing more than a tightening feeling. Also I feel a lot of pressure and most of the time it feels like the baby is going to fall out. This is my first pregnancy so not sure if this could mean our little is going to make an early appearance.

Its around that time when my baby dropped. AT 38 weeks it felt like having a soccer ball between my legs and waddling got worse. Ir felt like the baby might drop out. I delivered at 39 weeks with no complications.

My oldest was already head first and behind the cervix bone at 28 weeks and she was 2 days late. Honestly I was told it just means they are getting on position and they will come out when they are ready. Also your mucus plug regrows. I never fully lost mine when my water broke
